My first statement necklace

I’ve had a bit of luck lately in the blogger world and I won this necklace from the Bauble Bar over at Lily’s Style. I’m not going to lie, I used to hate statement necklaces like this but maybe since it’s free that’s why I suddenly love it. It’s my first Bauble Bar necklace and I am pleasantly surprised by the quality! I have issues with necklaces being too heavy, I blame my mothers sensitive neck issue for this but even though this was heavy it didn’t hurt me!

My boyfriend asked me, “Did a bowl of soup come with it?” I stared at him blankly. Remember Caddyshack? “Al Czervik: Oh, this is the worst-looking hat I ever saw. What, when you buy a hat like this I bet you get a free bowl of soup, huh? Al Czervik: Oh, it looks good on you though.” Basically my boyfriend just said this is the ugliest thing he’s ever seen. Says the man who thinks wearing tennis shoes with a suit is perfectly acceptable. Uh-huh.

Boys don't understand trends in womenswear but I think it makes us more mysterious. I personally like it; it'll be a great piece for those days you have OMG- nothing to wear! Just slap it on and voila: a new outfit.

I used to really dislike statement necklaces too! But seeing them everywhere has really sunken in and I have purchased a few this summer. I still prefer earrings too! Oh and my bf makes those same type of comments ALL the time. Usually, the things he hates the most are the same items that are most complimented by others!
